Sorry, I should have asked, what is the output of `perl -v`?	[reply] [d/l]

Oh, bleh. Yeah I should have posted that. `> perl -v > This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

v5.10.1 Feels like I'm failing at replying correctly.	[reply]

You are replying correctly, don't worry about that. Something strange is going on. The version of Perl you installed (`sudo yum reinstall perl`) has CPAN.pm v1.9402. Unless there's something really strange going on (some distros ship a stripped down version of perl I'm told) you shouldn't have to reinstall CPAN.pm (`sudo yum reinstall perl-CPAN`). Without knowing the background of how your cpan became broken in the first place I'd suggest investigating CPAN.pm which you do have installed, checking it's version. Perhaps something very odd occurred and you have a newer CPAN installed and the reinstallation attempts have confused matters.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
